All I can say after listening to the SINGLE version of Robyn’s next single, “Hang With Me,” (off Body Talk Part 2) is….WHY THE #$&! DO WE HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL SEPTEMBER 6th?!?!?!?!?!?! This just seems so unfair! YES, Robyn is busy with releasing 3 “mini-albums” over the course of one year NOT TO MENTION touring with Kelis on the All Hearts Tour but one single per album? “Dancing On My Own,” Robyn’s one and only single off Body Talk Part 1, made it to #3 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart and to #8 on the UK Singles Chart. The album made it to #3 on the Billboard Dance/Electronic Albums chart, #97 on the Billboard 200 and #47 on the UK Albums Chart.
To be fair, I guess releasing a single does require time-consuming PROMOTION, (i.e. videos, TV appearances, etc.) and Robyn probably won’t have time with all that she has going on but MAN. Now that I’ve had a taste…I want more and I want it NOW! In the meantime, I guess the acoustic version of the track, itself, a beautiful piece of pop heaven, will have to suffice. “Hang With Me” comes out September 6th, the same day Body Talk Part 2 is released.
